Tonight's tipple is the illustrious Shaw and Smith Sav blanc. I haven't any of their stuff before, but having this lovely sav has put them on my radar.
On initial contact, it has the tiniest-weeniest little bit of fizz which dissipates to a nice honey and pear finish. There is no nasty acid and it has a pleasantly long lasting finish.
One thing that I found interesting, is that the wine has zero colour. It is really really pale. I initially thought, oh dear! another wishy-washy white (can you tell i'm not a white fan?!?!), but oh my, its delics.

I had this wine with a plate of heirloom tomatoes and bocconcini. It was delicious, however I'd like to pair it with a tart lemon chicken or sweet potato dish. I reckon the honey taste would compliment starcy potato or soften the acid lemon.
For a change (and this rarely happens!), I am actually very pleased with my choice. If its hot, you can't stomach a red, or you just fancy a white, then start here. You won't be disappointed.
